Aberdeen will host Eintracht Frankfurt at the Pittodrie Stadium on Thursday in the final round of the group stages of the 2023-24 UEFA Europa Conference League campaign.
The home side have struggled to perform in their first group stage appearance in continental football since the 2007-08 season and have now been dumped out of the competition. They came from behind to pick up a 2-2 draw over Finnish outfit HJK in their last group game, with Angus MacDonald and Luis Henriques getting on the scoresheet to help secure a point.
Eintracht Frankfurt have performed fairly well in the Conference League this season and have secured a playoff spot. They were beaten 2-1 by PAOK in their last match and perhaps deserved more from the game but failed to convert their chances.
The visitors sit second in the group table with nine points from five games. They have nothing left to play for this week but will be targeting maximum points as they look to return to winning ways on the road.

Aberdeen vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction
Aberdeen's latest result ended a six-game winless streak and they will now look to kick on from that this week. They have, however, won just two of their last 10 home games across all competitions and could struggle here.
Similarly, Frankfurt thrashed Bayern Munich 5-1 in their game on Saturday to end a four-game losing streak and will head into the midweek clash full of confidence. They have had their struggles on the road of late but should have more than enough to win here.
